Part of the book series: Acta Physica Austriaca ((FEWBODY,volume 3/1966))

Abstract

We shall consider in these lectures the system of equations for the vacuum expectation values of certain products of field operators (the n-point-functions) of a nonlinear, cubic spinor theory with the field equation
